The process begins in the farthest reaches of Mongolia, where the raw material is combed by hand from the downy undercoat of the rare cashmere goat. From there, the fibre is shipped to the Johnstons of Elgin mill, on the banks of the River Lossie. Here, on the same site that the company has occupied since 1797, the cashmere is dyed, teased, carded, spun and hand-finished by the latest generation of Elgin craftsmen. And, though the enterprise now covers 20 acres, employs 790 people and utilises some of the most advanced textile equipment in the world.
